novatel.com Waypoint EXCEPTIONAL POST-PROCESSING SOFTWARE Enhance your GNSS Position, Velocity and Attitude Accuracy For applications requiring highly accurate post-mission position, velocity or attitude, postprocessing is an ideal solution. Post-processing maximizes the accuracy of the solution by processing previously stored Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) data forward and reverse in time, and combining the results. The position, velocity and attitude solution can be smoothed and output at the required data rate and in the coordinate frame required. This process also provides the ability to Combining GNSS with Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) extends the capability of traditional GNSS products by providing a full 3D attitude solution (roll, pitch, heading) and by providing a solution even during temporary outages in GNSS reception. However, real-time GNSS+INS system accuracy is limited by the quality of the IMU and the duration of GNSS outage periods. The performance of these systems can be greatly improved through postprocessing. Inertial Explorer significantly reduces the solution drift during GNSS outage periods and virtually eliminates the solution convergence time experienced in real-time operation.

GrafNav GNSS RECEIVER INDEPENDENT POST-PROCESSING SOFTWARE Enhanced GNSS Accuracy GNSS technology is used to compute position and velocity for a variety of real-time applications, including vehicle navigation and tracking. The real-time accuracy of GNSS however, is limited by real-time transmission of correction data. Further, in many applications where absolute position accuracy is critical, the position information is not required in real-time. For these applications, the accuracy of the GNSS position and velocity solution can be greatly improved by post-processing. Powerful, Highly Configurable Processing GrafNav post-processing software is a powerful, highly configurable processing engine that allows for the best possible static or kinematic GNSS accuracy using all available GNSS data. Support of data formats from most single and multi-frequency commercial receivers means GrafNav will likely work with your existing hardware. A full suite of data and solution visualization and diagnostic tools is available for quality assurance. Precise satellite clock and orbit data can be downloaded from within GrafNav to achieve sub-10 cm position accuracy using PPP with kinematic trajectories. No matter the type of project, GrafNav can be configured to optimize your results. The software can easily make use of project specific base station data, or use publicly available reference station data to achieve centimetre level position accuracy. GrafNav also supports multi-base processing for projects that cover large areas. A float static solution is available for long and/or noisy baselines. Built-in ionospheric processing improves accuracies for dual-frequency users.

GrafNet GNSS RECEIVER INDEPENDENT STATIC PROCESSING AND NETWORK ADJUSTMENT SOFTWARE Multiple Processing Options GrafNet is a batch static baseline processor and network adjustment package. It creates a single network by tying all the ends of static GNSS baselines together. It can be used to establish or check base station coordinates for later use within GrafNav or to survey entire static networks. Within minutes, GrafNet processes the entire project, containing multiple stations, in a single operation. When the processing is completed, GrafNet color codes the baselines so irregular baselines are isolated from the project and are easily analyzed. Statistics are available on each baseline misclosure and on the adjustment as a whole. GrafNet allows three types of static baseline Closed Loop and Radial Networks GrafNet can process both closed loop networks as well as radial networks as demonstrated in the diagrams below. As with GrafNav, multiple receiver types are supported and data from publicly available reference stations can be included in the project through the built-in download manager.
